Socket # for DRL/signal for '02 TA
I need to replace my socket for my passenger side DRL/signal for my '02 TA. I've been both to Autozone and Pep Boys, and neither one has it. Other than going to a Pontiac dealer and paying more, does anyone know of any other places I might be able to buy the new socket? And if so, what is the part #? Thanks

You can buy it on ebay for $35. I just bought it and it didn't fix my problem. My driver's side park lamp doesn't work. The turn signal part of it works fine. But the park lamp doesn't. I changed bulbs, changed the socket and still nothing. Frustrates the hell out of me. What could be the problem?

I've actually been doing some research on other boards, and it seems the problem is that the lamp actually has a very small slit that allows water to get in. The solution is to use silicone, or clear glue from the back side to plug it up. Also, I read that you can use dielectic (sp?) grease on the socket itself to protect it from water damage and heat. I haven't done it ye, but that's probably what I'm going to do.
